Just want to relate some of my impressions of the events from reading posts on the PT forum:
- LS was in fact blacked out and foaming at the mouth at Sports
- It is suspected that she returned to Smallwood with the intent to get more coke
- (second-hand) The confrontation concerned CR's attention to LS (this may be romantic and/or health-related concern) and may have arisen from seeing them together and/or her messed-up condition at Sports. It may have occurred outside as well.
- Unidentified individuals at Smallwood told her to stay there, but she left with CR
- JR said that the phone call to DR, made by LS, was intended to have him pick LS up in his car to take her back to Smallwood
- Friends of JW suspect JR of disposing the body or at least lying about something, and say nothing about ZO (though this was some time ago, and they in fact went silent when ZO was mentioned)
- It doesn't seem disputed by either camp that JR used coke. Whether he was a "dealer" is disputed - it's conceded that he may not have been, but asserted that he had easy access to the drug and sold it. A semantic difference, perhaps.
- Friends of JR indicate that he would not have the presence of mind that would allow him to dispose of a body (or make up a story about it?)
Relying on the above, and assuming an OD, I would assume that one of the following must be the case:
1) LS OD'd at CR's. If he was not present already, CR called JR (because he provided the drugs?) to help dispose of the body and concoct a story. I would assume most people believe this to be highly unlikely given the multiple parties who have taken polygraph tests.
2) LS OD'd at JR's. JR disposed of the body with the aid of persons present (CR? others?) or perhaps someone he called (who is unlikely to be DR, whose involvement presumably would have been captured by Smallwood cameras and/or keycard data; JW's friends indicate DR had nothing to do with it). JR, however, has "passed" a (private) polygraph, and CR has submitted to a police test. Perhaps JR's story is for public benefit, and he has "rolled" on a higher-up dealer. If so, presumably there would be an arrest already, though perhaps LE is waiting for a body. Perhaps LE has in fact already made an arrest on a drug or other charge and is waiting for the body to add a charge related to LS?
3) LS left JR's and went to 10th and College, where she OD'd. One or more of the 10th and College residents, perhaps with a third party, disposed of the body. While JR has taken a polygraph, his purported story is misdirection by the police and/or to protect JR. This account, however, appears inconsistent with the mystery witness sighting, at least in its timing. It may also be difficult to explain given the possibility that LS's visit and removal might have been likely to be captured on camera.
4) LS went to (or outside of) 10th and College after CR/MB's (and JR's?) and then returned to JR's, perhaps with a 10th and College resident, where she OD's. The body is disposed of either by all present or by one present (with outside help?) who threatens the other(s). Is this the most likely scenario? It may be inconsistent with northsider's story that LS OD'd at a dealer's apt if JR is not in fact a/the dealer.
